Reduced price for Telia Connect

On November 1, 2004, Telia will reduce the price of the Telia Connect mobile service for companies. The new price is SEK 598 per month (excluding 25% V.A.T.), which includes the 3G-Card, software, subscription and 1000 MB of data traffic. Telia Connect subscribers will also be able to surf wirelessly on the Internet, without extra costs, from 800 hot spots in the Nordic countries where Telia Homerun is available.

A growing number of employees are choosing to work more and more outside their workplaces in order to work more efficiently, save time and reduce stress - this is a clear trend among Swedish companies today. In Telia's "Mobile Manager" survey, conducted in May 2004, 1,000 managers were polled and the majority responded that wireless working methods for employees and managers enable higher profitability. Close to 80 percent said that wireless working is stimulating and provides good possibilities for staying in better contact with employees.

"By utilising Telia's strong ability to package GSM, 3G and Homerunthis way, at this price, we can develop an offering that givescompanies a better platform to take the mobile leap from," says ErikHeilborn, head of the Business Segment at TeliaSonera Sweden."

Telia Connect users can easily connect to the Internet, or their corporate intranet, wherever they are. The service selects the fastest possible transmission speed in Telia's nationwide mobile network. The monthly rate for Telia Connect includes the monthly price and traffic charges for the Telia Homerun service in the Nordic countries.

The Telia Connect offer will run until December 31, 2004. The monthly charge of SEK 598 applies when a customer signs up for a Telia Connect subscription with a 12-month binding period.
